John is runnig his Database application on a single server with 24 Gigabytes of memory and 4 processors. The system is running slow during peak hours and the diagnostic logs indicated that the system is running low on memory. John requested for additional memory of 8 Gigabytes to be added to the server to address the problem. What is the resultant type of scaling that John is expecting?

Answer:

Vertical Scaling

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical scaling means the ability to increase the capacity of existing hardware or software by adding resources. In this case, more GB is added (8GB) to the server to address the problem. So vertical scaling is the resultant type john is expecting.
